Written Answers. - Registration of Title.

Michael Ring

Question:

244 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry if he will expedite a request to the Land Commission to complete a title for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo in order that the land in question can be registered in the Land Registry in view of the fact that it is also holding up the sale of property. [2776/97]

The lands in the townland of Durless form part of the Marquis of Sligo Estate, Record No. 10104. They were acquired by the Land Commission on a Vesting Order dated 20 May 1920, pursuant to the powers vested in them by the Irish Land Acts 1903 and 1909.

As a result of an inspection and survey carried out by the Land Commission in October 1925 it transpired that the land in question was held in freehold and was, therefore, excluded from Land Commission proceedings.
